MALE PA ANNOUNCER: Please board the transports according to your evacuation designation.All transports must be cleared...

GURNEY OPERATOR: Okay, help me push him up, guys.

HOLDO: That one's a troublemaker.

I like him.

Me, too.

Now, time to board your transport.

For the transports to escape, someone needs to stay behind and pilot the cruiser.

Too many losses.I can't take any more.

Sure you can.You taught me how.

BOTH: May the Force be...

(BOTH CHUCKLING)

You go on. I've said it enough.

May the Force be with you always.

FEMALE PILOT: (ON RADIO) Cloaking device activated.

We should be off their scopes.

Let's hope this works.

(HANDCUFFS BEEPING)

Come closer, child.

So much strength.Darkness rises, and light to meet it.I warned my young apprentice that as he grew stronger, his equal in the light would rise.

Skywalker...

(CHUCKLING) I assumed.

Wrongly.

Closer, I said.

REY: You underestimate Skywalker, and Ben Solo, and me.It will be your downfall.

(WHISPERS) Oh...

Have you seen something?A weakness in my apprentice.Is that why you came?

(LAUGHS)

Young fool.It was I who bridged your minds.

I stoked Ren's conflicted soul.I knew he was not strong enough to hide it from you.

And you were not wise enough to resist the bait.

And now, you will give me Skywalker.

(REY BREATHING HEAVILY)

Then I will kill you with the cruelest stroke.

No.

Yes.

(GRUNTS)

Give me everything.

REY: No! No!No!

(SCREAMS)

(GASPS)

No. No.

No, no, no!

LEIA: Poe.

What is that?

D'ACY: The mineral planet, Crait.An uncharted hideout from the days of the Rebellion.

-That's a Rebel base?-Abandoned, but heavily armored with enough power to get a distress signal to our allies scattered in the Outer Rim.

LEIA: Holdo knew the First Order was tracking our big ship.

They're not monitoring for little transports.

So we could slip down to the surface unnoticed and hide till the First Order passes.

That could work.

She was more interested in protecting the light than she was seeming like a hero.

Godspeed, Rebels.

(ROSE GRUNTS)

Well done, Phasma.

Your ship and payment, as we agreed.

You lying snake.

(ROSE STRUGGLING)

We got caught, I cut a d-d-deal.

Wait, cut a deal with what?

Sir, we checked on the information from the thief.

We ran a decloaking scan, and sure enough, Resistance transports have just launched from the cruiser.

He told us the truth.

Will wonders never cease?

No.

Our weapons are ready?

Ready and aimed, sir.

Fire at will.

Wait. No, no. No, you can't!

No!

(PANICKED MURMURING)

PILOT: Admiral, we're taking fire!

-Do we turn around?-No, you're too far out.

Full speed to planetfall.

Full speed!

(GROANS)

(LAUGHING) Well, well, I did not expect Skywalker to be so wise.We will give him and the Jedi Order the death he desires.After the Rebels are gone, we will go to his planet and obliterate the entire island.

(REY YELPING)

SNOKE: Such spunk.

Look here now.

(STRUGGLING)

SNOKE: The entire Resistance on those transports...Soon they will all be gone.For you, all is lost.

Ooh. And still that fiery spit of hope.You have the spirit of a true Jedi!

(GRUNTING)

And because of that, you must die.

(STRUGGLING)

My worthy apprentice, son of darkness, heir apparent to Lord Vader.

Where there was conflict, I now sense resolve.Where there was weakness, strength.

Complete your training, and fulfill your destiny.

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

I know what I have to do.

Ben.

(SNOKE LAUGHING)

You think you can turn him?Pathetic child.

I cannot be betrayed, I cannot be beaten.I see his mind,I see his every intent.

Yes.

I see him turning the lightsaber to strike true.And now, foolish child, he ignites it, and kills his true enemy!

(LIGHTSABER ACTIVATING)

(LIGHTSABER ACTIVATING)

Come on, give it full thrusters. Full speed!

I am, sir.

You murdering bastard!

T-T-Take it easy, Big F.

They blow you up today, you blow them up tomorrow.

It's just business.

You're wrong.

Maybe.

(KYLO REN GRUNTING)

(REY GRUNTING)

(REY STRAINING)

-(LIGHTSABER BUZZING)-(REY SHRIEKING)

(LIGHTSABER CRACKLING)

(STRUGGLING)

(PANTING)

(GRUNTING)

REY: Ben!

The fleet.Order them to stop firing.There's still time to save the fleet.

Ben?

It's time to let old things die.

Snoke,Skywalker.

The Sith,the Jedi, the Rebels...Let it all die.

Rey.I want you to join me.We can rule together and bring a new order to the galaxy.

Don't do this, Ben.Please don't go this way.

No, no. You're still holding on! Let go!

Do you wanna know the truth about your parents?

Or have you always known?And you've just hidden it away.

You know the truth.

Say it.Say it.

They were nobody.They were filthy junk traders who sold you off for drinking money.

(SOBS)

They're dead in a paupers' grave in the Jakku desert.

You have no place in this story.You come from nothing. You're nothing.

But not to me.Join me.Please.

Sir, the Resistance cruiser's preparing to jump to lightspeed.

It's empty.They're just trying to pull our attention away. Pathetic.

Keep your fire on the transports.

(BOTH PANTING)

PHASMA: Execution by blaster is too good for them.Let's make this hurt.

ROSE: Finn.

(WEAPONS BUZZING)

On my command.

She's running away.

No, she isn't.

(INSTRUMENTS BEEPING)

-No!-Fire on that cruiser!

(STRAINING)

(GROANING)

Execute.

(ROSE GRUNTING)

Finn!

There's a shuttle back that way! We gotta go!

-Traitor!-(BLASTER POWERING UP)

What?

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)

(BB-8 CHIRPING)

Finn!

(ROSE YELPS)

(FINN SHOUTING)

You are a bug in the system.

Let's go, chrome dome.

(FINN GRUNTING)

Come on!

No!

Hey.

(PHASMA GROANS)

You were always scum.

Rebel scum.

(BB-8 CHIRPING)

Hey! Need a lift?

What happened?

The girl murdered Snoke.

What happened?

She took Snoke's escape craft.

We know where she's going.

Get all our forces down to that Resistance base.

Let's finish this.

Finish this?

Who do you think you're talking to?You presume to command my army?

Our Supreme Leader is dead!We have no ruler!

(CHOKING)

The Supreme Leader is dead.Long live the Supreme Leader.

(SPACECRAFT APPROACHING)

They're coming, shut the door.

(CREATURES WHIMPERING)

Incoming!

POE: Go! Go! Move!

Get that shield door down!

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)

ROSE: No! Wait, don't shoot!It's us!

No! Don't shoot!

Hold your fire!

FINN: Don't shoot!POE: Hold your fire!

LEIA: Finn?POE: Finn!

Rose! You're not dead!

Where's my droid?

(BB-8 CHIRPING EXCITEDLY)

Buddy!

-I'm so glad to see you!-(BB-8 CHIRPING HAPPILY)

POE: Wait, what?Wait, wait, wait, slow down.

Is this all that's left?

All right, shields are up So they can't hit us from orbit.

Use whatever power we've got left to broadcast a distress signal to the Outer Rim.

Use my personal code.

If there are any allies to the Resistance, it's now or never.

Rose, what do you got?

Rotting munitions, rusted artillery, some half-gutted skim speeders.

Well, let's just pray that big-ass door holds long enough for us to get help.

(DISTANT RUMBLING)

(CREATURES BARKING)

FINN: A battering ram cannon.

A what now?

Miniaturized Death Star tech.

It'll crack that door open like an egg.

There has to be a back way out of here, right?

(BB-8 CHIRPING)

POE: BB-8, what do you got?

C-3PO: BB-8 has analyzed the mine's schematics.

This is the only way in or out.

(DISTANT RUMBLING)

(WALLS CREAKING)

Come on.We have allies.

People believe in Leia.

They'll get our message, they'll come.

But we have to buy time.We gotta take out that cannon.

SOLDIER : On me! On me!

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)

SOLDIER : Move! Move!

Go back! Gather your weapons!

SOLDIER: Get over here!

SOLDIER: Hold your fire!

Salt.

SOLDIER : Ground forces, incoming.

POE: (ON RADIO) Copy that.On our way.

Engage your mono-ski.

The green toggle.

(GRUNTS)

All right, listen up.

I don't like these rust buckets and I don't like our odds, but...What the hell?

Just keep it tight and don't get drawn in too close till they roll that cannon out front.

All right, ground forces, lay down some fire!

Thirteen incoming light craft.

Shall we hold until we clear them?

No. The Resistance is in that mine.

Push through.

Fighters, break off!

Come on! We gotta hold them till they pull up that cannon!

(SPEAKING ALIEN DIALECT)

(SOLDIERS GROANING)

Rose, you got three right behind you!

I can't lose 'em!

Whoo! Yeah!

(CHEWIE GROWLS)

(PORG GROWLS)

Whoo! I like this!

Blow that piece of junk out of the sky!

All fighters!

Chewie, peel off from the battle.

Draw them away from the speeders.

(CHEWIE GROWLS)

She drew 'em off! All of 'em!

Oh, they hate that ship!

(PORG CHIRPING)

Chewie!

(CHEWIE GROWLS)

(PORG CRYING)

(CHEWIE GROWLS)

(SCREAMS)

There it is!That is a big gun.

FINN: Okay, it's heavily armored.

Our only shot is right down the throat.

The cannon's opening.This is our chance.

All firepower on those speeders.

Concentrate all fire on the speeders!

We're taking heavy losses.

(INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER)

(SCREAMS)

(YELPS)

They're picking us all off.We're not gonna make it.

FINN: All right, making my final approach.

Target in sight, guns are hot.

No! Pull off!

What?

The cannon is charged!It's a suicide run!

All craft, pull away!

-No! I'm almost there!-POE: Retreat, Finn!

That's an order!

Finn? It's too late!Don't do this!

No! I won't let them win!

No! Finn, listen to Poe!

We have to retreat!

MALE SCOUT: (ON RADIO) The cannon is warming up now.

MALE COMMANDER: (ON RADIO) Copy that. We see it.

MALE SCOUT: Preparing to fire.

(SPEEDER RATTLING)

(BLAST FIRING)

Move! Go, go! Quick!

SOLDIER : Let's go, let's go!

(GRUNTING)

Rose?Rose?Rose?

Why would you do that? Huh?

I was almost there.

Why would you stop me?

I saved you, dummy.

That's how we're gonna win.

Not fighting what we hate, saving what we love.

KYLO REN: General Hux, advance.

No quarter.No prisoners.

Our distress signal's been received at multiple points, but no response.

They've heard us, but no one's coming.

We fought till the end.

But the galaxy has lost all its hope.

The spark is out.

Luke. I know what you're gonna say.

I changed my hair. It's nice that way.

Leia, I'm sorry.

I know.I know you are.

I'm just glad you're here at the end.

I came to face him, Leia.And I can't save him.

I held out hope for so long, but I know my son is gone.

No one's ever really gone.

C-3PO: Master Luke.

Stop!

(MACHINERY CREAKING)

I want every gun we have to fire on that man.

Do it.

More!More!

That's enough.

(SHOUTING) That's enough!

(GUNS DEACTIVATING)

Do you think you got him?

Now, if we're ready to get moving, we can finish this.

Sir?

(EXHALES SHAKILY)

Bring me down to him.

Keep the door covered and don't advance until I say.

Supreme Leader, don't get distracted, our goal...

(HUX YELPS)

Right away, sir.

Med pack!I need a med pack!

She's hurt pretty bad.

It's Kylo Ren.Luke's facing him alone.

Well, we should help him.Let's go.

No, wait. Wait.

Did you come back to say you forgive me?To save my soul?

No.

He's doing this for a reason.He's stalling so we can escape.

Escape?

He's one man against an army.

We have to help him, we have to fight.

No, no. We are the spark that'll light the fire that'll burn the First Order down.

Skywalker's doing this so we can survive.

There's gotta be a way out of this mine.

Hell, how did he get in here?

Sir, it is possible that a natural unmapped opening exists.But this facility is such a maze of endless tunnels that the odds of finding an exit

-are ,...-Shh. Shush. Hush. Shush up.

Shut up!

-To one.-Listen.

C-3PO: My audio sensors no longer detect the...

POE: Exactly.

Where'd the crystal critters go?

(CREATURE WHIMPERING)

Follow me.

What are you looking at me for?

Follow him.

(BEACON PULSATING RAPIDLY)

If the beacon's right beneath us, they've got to be somewhere.

Keep scanning for life forms.

(BEACON PULSATING RAPIDLY)

This way.

(PORG CHITTERING)

I see them! Chewie, there!

(CREATURES YIPPING)

(CREATURE WHINING)

No. No, no, no.No!

(CREATURES BARKING)

Lifting rocks.

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

(KYLO REN GRUNTING)

(LIGHTSABER CRACKLING)

(GRUNTING)

I failed you, Ben.

-I'm sorry.-I'm sure you are!

The Resistance is dead.The war is over.

And when I kill you, I will have killed the last Jedi.

Amazing.Every word of what you just said was wrong.

The Rebellion is reborn today.The war is just beginning.

And I will not be the last Jedi.

I'll destroy her, and you, and all of it.

No.Strike me down in anger and I'll always be with you.Just like your father.
